Then Chris shreds his own credibility by implying that the music was better at Coventry than at 8 or 9.

He never said that or implied it. He only said that 7/2/11 was the least interesting three set show since 12/31/96. Not that Coventry was better than IX or 8.

I loved the Suskind and Monkey Man in Set 1, the Scents, Golden Age, and maybe another couple moments, but that's a lot of sets to cull a small amount of highlights.

I loved 7/3, thought that was great show, but I tend to agree about 7/2, kind of boring.

I agree with you too, I think IX ranks below Cypress, Clifford Ball and Went but leaps and bounds ahead of Fest 8, Coventry, Lemonwheel, and slightly ahead of IT and Oswego.

IX is not sightly ahead of Oswego musically, just listen to both thoroughly please...this what I'm talking about, It's ALL subjective in the end....and that's my opinion, all I see is alot of "objective" opinions.
